Wireshark · Wireshark-bugs: [Wireshark-bugs] [Bug 11886] Capture filter applied on Capture Options page cannot be cleared

[bugzilla-daemon@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Comment # 2 on bug 11886 from Gerald Combs

What does the "Capture Filter" (right-most) column in the interface list show
on your end? I can duplicate this here, but only if I set the per-interface
filter to "icmp" for my capture interface and clear the default filter at the
bottom of the dialog. This appears to be a combination of the following
behaviors:

1) Unless you notice the horizontal scroll bar and use it, it's not obvious
that we have per-interface filters or that a specific interface has a filter
applied. Fixing this might mean rearranging the UI, e.g. by making each
configuration option a subtree item under each interface.

2) Typing into the default filter entry updates the per-interface filter for
each selected interface. We shouldn't do this.

3) Per-interface filters are saved in the preferences. This is on purpose, and
is what the GTK+ UI has done for quite some time.
